Teng Kai-wei Pitches for 2nd Consecutive Day, Defuses Bases-Loaded Threat with 1.1 Scoreless Innings

The Astros were trailing 1-7 after 5 innings. In the bottom of the 6th, Christian Roa issued consecutive walks and hit-by-pitches, leading to bases loaded. After giving up a run on a sacrifice fly, he struck out a batter but then issued another walk, loading the bases for the second time in the inning. The Astros decided to change pitchers, and Teng Kai-wei took over, demonstrating his strong composure by striking out a batter under pressure to stop the bleeding and successfully defuse the bases-loaded bomb.

Teng Kai-wei continued to pitch in the 7th inning, retiring the side in order. He completed 1.1 innings with a total of 18 pitches, 12 of which were strikes. His fastest pitch was 96.3 mph (approximately 155 km/h). He allowed no hits and recorded 1 strikeout. So far this season, he has appeared in 5 MLB games with an ERA of 2.35.
